I coordinate donations at Union Women's Shelter in Accra. Every year around this time we hear from families who have nothing warm for their children, and this year demand has more than doubled.
We're collecting clean, gently used or new coats, boots, hats, gloves and scarves in sizes kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Accra, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Union Women's Shelter on Wednesday between 11am and 4pm.
If you're elsewhere, you may offer to sponsor a coat through a local shop - message in the comments and we can coordinate.
Items go to families directly and the rest to the Union Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone.
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you, Akua. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Cambridge.
